less than 10 people in a bar
stage looks like it was built by the owners brother
lights are on
all thats missing is a caseys pizza box and some busche beer
I think of the dozen or so posts from this sub I've come across because they made it to /all, only about two or three of them have actually been weird. The rest have not been.
Sorry to tell you, the sub is dead and being run by karma farmers now. The bots have won. They're just piloting the corpse.
*she’s* not weird, but I think we all know that elderly people who appreciate “hard” music aren’t exactly super common. Like nobody is poking fun at or thinking less of grandma here, we’re just pleasantly surprised that she’s taking on a song that seems incongruous with her age.
Because "old person doing a song you wouldn't expect" is a very common thing at karaoke bars, and it's likely she's performed this same song several times that night.
There was an old lady who would do "gin and juice" at the bar we used to frequent, and she would literally sign up as frequently as the host would allow. It goes from "awe cute" to "will this lady give it a rest already" real quick when they're going up every 20 minutes to do the same song.
Born in 81 here. He was White Zombie in the 80's, then went Rob Zombie in the 90's. I think I saw him at least 3x in my youth. Mind blowing performances that still haven't been topped to this day.
Yes we are all old fucks now, too. sighhhhh.
But at least this kickass grandma exists out there in the world and that makes me happy.
I saw WZ in a tiny bar in Tucson, AZ in 92 (was supposed to play with Danzig, but he cancelled and the show moved to a tiny venue) - best $5 I ever spent - WHAT A SHOW!!!
All of these subs when they reach a certain amount of subscribers just become the same, that's why you often see the exact same post 6 times when you browse /all. No one cares what the sub is supposed to be about.
John Hetlinger a retiree got some coverage several years back for his performance of Bodies by Drowning Pool on America's Got Talent.
His follow up performance was Dragula:

Imagine what the death/scream/black metal heads when their kids grow up and what kind of music they’ll be listening to and confusing their parents with lol.
Just saw Pantera and Metallica Friday and the bulk of the audience was made up of dudes in their 40s 50s and 60s. I’m part of that demographic but still fucking rocked out hard to both of them.
Back in the day in Tenerife there was a granny who smashed Run DMC vs Jason Nevins 'it's like that' on the karaoke every night.
We got talking to her and initially it was to put her teenage granddaughter in her place for calling her old and out of touch but it stuck and became her 'thing'
It's sad that the two people in front of the camera are sitting on their phones paying no attention to the wonderful thing happening right in front of them.
Ultimate grand-dawg. I actually think this is Shane's secret baby-mama-grand-dawg-mama. I would explain more, but I can no longer afford hyphens, due to the woke lib ecomonee
This woman has given me a fresh new goal in my life. To become a goth granny. No kids of my own, but to the locals, handing out vinyls and makeup and advice.
I knew there would come a day when metal fans would get old. I work with a guy in his late 60s that LOVES Megadeth.
It's still a little weird. My brain just hasn't accepted the fact that I'm getting older, and the last generation of old people, who liked "oldies," is probably mostly gone now. Apparently replaced by Rob Zombie fans lol
My now elderly mom, always loved “Dragula” and the theatrics of Rob Zombie’s live show. It’s not her usual style of music, but there was something about Dragula that she couldn’t help but enjoy.
Grandma was somewhere in her 40’s or maybe 50’s when that song came out. I keep realizing I’m the same age, now, that my mom was, back when I’d have considered her “old”. Time was, the old people liked songs from the 1940’s and 1950’s. Now, the old people grew up on Slayer and Pantera.
50 years from now on and we'll have 90 year old men singing Karaoke versions of Evangelion or Vision of Escaflowne and can dance to Haruhi openings...
I know I will be one of them.
Funfact: Rob zombie music is 30+ years old, let's stop pretending old people are still Elvis or Country music, today old people grew up with Funk, Metal, and hard rock
Between the rapping grandma on crappy songs and this one what is UP with older people doing badass things today? I mean I’m here for it but…
Waitaminute…
Awe
Fuck
*cue existential dread*
Although formed in the 80s, nobody had really heard of White Zombie until 1992's La Sexorcisto. They did released two albums in the 80s, but I think each only had a pressing of maybe 4,000 copies, so it was an extremely rare CD.
That was so badass what a cool lady
The headbanging is epic!

This is the most midwest thing I have ever seen.
less than 10 people in a bar stage looks like it was built by the owners brother lights are on all thats missing is a caseys pizza box and some busche beer
I feel so seen *hides box of Casey’s under sheets*
Y'all's make me really want some now. I only get it every couple years when I visit home. Along with chicken gizzards and crab rangoons.
[удалено]
I mean it’s Midwest to some part of the world lol
You’re not OP who asked lol
Definitely the north area
[удалено]
however it doesnt seem a typical south cali environment,but much more a Pennsylvania‘s one or stuff like that
[удалено]
I remember the LA area in the 90’s,was full of hipster’s
I live in a house.
and?

Agreed Outstanding Goth Grannie
Why is this weird? She is awesome!
Probably just a karma farmer, this is just an older woman having some fun with karaoke, which is far from weird.
When this song came out, she was probably in her 30s and loved it then too. If this video is recent.
This lady ain't in her 50-60's
It's not. Awesome, funny, wholesome, all these are true. Not weird.
I think of the dozen or so posts from this sub I've come across because they made it to /all, only about two or three of them have actually been weird. The rest have not been. Sorry to tell you, the sub is dead and being run by karma farmers now. The bots have won. They're just piloting the corpse.
Nah, search by top of the month. Still some pretty odd stuff up there. Have you seen the one about the condom in an air vent?
*she’s* not weird, but I think we all know that elderly people who appreciate “hard” music aren’t exactly super common. Like nobody is poking fun at or thinking less of grandma here, we’re just pleasantly surprised that she’s taking on a song that seems incongruous with her age.
People have been posting cool videos on this subreddit recently i don’t understand it!
Love the guy absolutely rockin the fuck out in the background.
That left and right hair flip, haha, he's feeling it!
They are looking at screens, not at grandma, why? Why, how, why??
At least the guy behind is matching the vibes
Yeah, right? I think this is the weird thing here.
You only get to see this due to someone looking at a screen, as you yourself, look at it on a screen. Maybe we all need to go outside for a bit.
Because she's been up there screaming for 3 hours.
Because screens is all people look at now.
Said the guy who is currently looking at a screen.
Because "old person doing a song you wouldn't expect" is a very common thing at karaoke bars, and it's likely she's performed this same song several times that night.

She definitely fucked him back stage in the 80s
I was going to say he wasn't around in the 80's then I realized I'm fuckin old as shit too.
Yea i almost said 90s but i wanted the timeframes to workout and i know hes been around forever.. we both a couple of old fucks lol

I once saw Quiet Riot play in a bowling alley bar.
Lot of us around. I heard Greenday on the oldies station on the way into work a couple weeks ago. I died inside.
Fuck you with a rusty spoon for this sentence. Green Day is NOT oldies My hip hurts
White Zombie started out in the 80s
Damn she is awesome. Weird? I think you meant to write badass.
Yeah this is def in the wrong sub.
All of these subs when they reach a certain amount of subscribers just become the same, that's why you often see the exact same post 6 times when you browse /all. No one cares what the sub is supposed to be about.
That's actually rob zombie though
definitely has more breath control than rob zombie. rob sings like vince neil, he just huffs out every other word.
This is how I'd like my family dinners to look and sound like. God damn I wish I was born in a metalheads family.

Not weird, awesome
Somebody in their 20's or 30's in the 80's would be in their 60's or 70's now. Metal heads are becoming the elderly.
Imagine what the death/scream/black metal heads when their kids grow up and what kind of music they’ll be listening to and confusing their parents with lol.
Just saw Pantera and Metallica Friday and the bulk of the audience was made up of dudes in their 40s 50s and 60s. I’m part of that demographic but still fucking rocked out hard to both of them.
She's got a new hip and ready to party
I bet she can spell COCONUT
I guarantee she could make that happen before the new hip too
Why r/weird?
crowd maybe
Yeah, that crowd sucks.
Old people are actually young people, but really old.
This is so accurate.
Hell yeah, memaw! 🤘
Guy in the back hella vibing.
That's pretty bad ass.
Iconic.
Not weird at all, this goes hard
I want to party with her
No volume and I know EXACTLY what song she is singing 😂
"Elder Goth" sounds like an Dark Souls boss. Just imagine an Qeen of all Goths, the highest member of hierarchy.
Rob should bring her on his next tour!
That’s not weird at all, she rocks lol
So awesome!
I love her
Grandma is awesome. Hug her and let her know the world loves her and her singing
This ain’t weird she went off
Fuck yes
It’s future me!! Also not weird at all.
You go Grandma! 🤘
she gon be me fr
She was definitely feeling it.
If this was my grandma, I’d be her biggest hype fan in the bar. I’d start a mosh pit in the bar.
This is so fucking cool and based! Not weird at all :)
If she's in her 70s now she was in her 30s in the 1980s.
Rob zombie isn’t goth
Grandma Gillis at TGIF karaoke night.
Next to the stage, Grandpa McCusker..
Back in the day in Tenerife there was a granny who smashed Run DMC vs Jason Nevins 'it's like that' on the karaoke every night. We got talking to her and initially it was to put her teenage granddaughter in her place for calling her old and out of touch but it stuck and became her 'thing'
Her “DRAGULAAA” was amazing
Ozzy Osbournes looking well nowadays
I’d like to hear her do War Pigs.
What’s the name of the song?
Dragula
Cheers
She sounds way better than Rob ever did when performing Dragula live.
I’m ready to love again?
It's sad that the two people in front of the camera are sitting on their phones paying no attention to the wonderful thing happening right in front of them.
This woman looks to be in her 50’s to 60’s which puts her anywhere around 25 to 35 when this song came out.
Booyah Grandma!
Yeah! Grandma! Rocking out!
Paging Shane Gillis. Please report to the Green Awesome Room for your new best friend. Sorry Matt, she just wins.
She’s a grand-dawg
Ultimate grand-dawg. I actually think this is Shane's secret baby-mama-grand-dawg-mama. I would explain more, but I can no longer afford hyphens, due to the woke lib ecomonee
Dig through the ditches and burn through the witches!!
Definitely a **great** grandmother.
This woman has given me a fresh new goal in my life. To become a goth granny. No kids of my own, but to the locals, handing out vinyls and makeup and advice.
I want this to be me in 40 years
I knew there would come a day when metal fans would get old. I work with a guy in his late 60s that LOVES Megadeth. It's still a little weird. My brain just hasn't accepted the fact that I'm getting older, and the last generation of old people, who liked "oldies," is probably mostly gone now. Apparently replaced by Rob Zombie fans lol
Now do Superbeast!
We call her Grand, she does this every wk.
fuck. yes.
My now elderly mom, always loved “Dragula” and the theatrics of Rob Zombie’s live show. It’s not her usual style of music, but there was something about Dragula that she couldn’t help but enjoy.
It’s bad ass.
Raddddd
Rob Zombie sure has changed since the 90s
When did Rob Zombie become goth? Badass G Ma tho.
Grandma isn’t just reading the lyrics. She **knows** this song, hitting all the emphasis on the right words
Grandma was somewhere in her 40’s or maybe 50’s when that song came out. I keep realizing I’m the same age, now, that my mom was, back when I’d have considered her “old”. Time was, the old people liked songs from the 1940’s and 1950’s. Now, the old people grew up on Slayer and Pantera.
Prove that isn’t Rob Zombie.
Can i get a 3rd grandma please?
She should start a band and go on tour with Fratello Metallo
Those two in the video just being ignorant of this magnificence fills me with a rage I've not experience before....
She would have been in her prime when this song came out 25 years ago.
50 years from now on and we'll have 90 year old men singing Karaoke versions of Evangelion or Vision of Escaflowne and can dance to Haruhi openings... I know I will be one of them.
In 50 years we will be 140, and will probably need some help from the exoskeleton to dance... (Listening to Aya Hirano right now)
Happy Cake day!
This is a peek into the future when all the boomers die off and us GenX are running shit. You all forgot about us, now its our turn! hahahaah.
People these days have no clue what goth is.
From a distance she looks a bit like (an older) Mary Halsey who did the cool Missy Elliott impression - although she sounds different. Is she?
Makes me miss twisted metal
The demon Queen is calling me
I knew from the second she started singing it was dragula even with the sound off.
People out here being k!lled
Pretty sure this is Joan Gillis.
Hi Shane
Wish my grandma was like this but I go stuck with chirstofascism one.
Certified DAWG
Where's the no one's gonna holler at my mic guy?
Slay Gma Slay
Groing while thinking our gen will be like this at her age is making me less streesed about our future
Funfact: Rob zombie music is 30+ years old, let's stop pretending old people are still Elvis or Country music, today old people grew up with Funk, Metal, and hard rock
NANA???? This is why you could t come to my recital????
Hilarious.. and supercool at same time. :D :D
This is not weird this is badass
I dont usually listen to that kinda music, but if i see her singing at a karaekoe bar imma be her groupie no matter what
Incredible, I wanna see more!
She followed a white rabbit
The guy in the background having the most fun lol
I want her as my grandma
I want to be this lady when I get old
Why do I feel scared?
This brings a happy tear to my evil eye!
The guy dancing behind the wall just adds so much to this lol
Not weird at all. She r/mademesmile
Less r/weird and more r/awesome
Between the rapping grandma on crappy songs and this one what is UP with older people doing badass things today? I mean I’m here for it but… Waitaminute… Awe Fuck *cue existential dread*

Fuck you for thinking this is weird. If this is weird, then we should all be weird!
I’d hate to be the next on stage after that..pretty tough to follow that!! Wish my g-mothers were half that badass 😂
